      A few years back I was a firearm salesman. The first time I sold a gun to someone born in the year 2000 I had an instant mid-life crisis.

      Now I have a side gig teaching night classes at the University, and the students graduating college now weren’t alive for 9/11.

        Last year I was pouring myself a whiskey and my nephew asked if he could taste it.

        I told him, half joking, that it was adult stuff.

        My sister replied that he was 18 years old.

        I poured myself a double.

        Aw man that sucks. Every kid should get to experience the wonderful 9/11. Truly a shame they can’t anymore.
